Question UV or Vigier seven string, and pics of Vigier sevens?
Hey, I have a UV now and I find it a little too bulky. Is the Vigier any different in neck width?

Also, whoever owns a Vigier 7, please post pics! Thanks!

Width wise I would think they are the same, here are the technical details you want though

So, width wise the UV is slightly thinner. Thickness wise the Vigier is 20.5mm@nut and 24mm@12th fret while the UV is 21mm@nut and 23mm@12th fret. The Vigier also has a 'rounder' fretboard than the UV, depending on the neck profile you might find the Vigier feels bigger than the UV neck.

As far as I know, you won't find a thinner neck than a UV. Ibanez has always been prized for their super thin necks.

To my hands, all ibanez necks feel flat and wide. Maybe its an illusion though because arent ibanez F-spaced just like all the others? So, who makes a Gibson spaced 7 string then?

By the way, one of the top 5 guitars on my list of wants right now is a Vigier Shawn Lane.
